Wolfe v. Yohn

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Wolfe v. Yohn, 2 Walk. 75 (Pa. 1884)

Wolfe v. Yohn

Opinion of the Court

The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the Court of Common Pleas, on the 2nd of June, 1884, in the following opinion :

Per Curiam.

The act of 20 March, 1725, 1 Sm. Laws 164, P. Dig; 63 Pl. 47, lhas never been repealed. As it remains in full force it controls this 'case. The act rests on sound reason. In a civil action arrests should not be encouraged when ample security is otherwise given to the plaintiff for the collection of his claim.

Judgment Affirmed.
